lol yes foxes are known to attack...i kno because ive been fox hunting before and they get nasty if cornered try to bite my cousin jumped at him, which is why im not sure why u would do that...but they are cunning lil bastards...always see em up where i live on the peninsula..lol in lalor, epping, thomastown.. i just see kangaroos everywhere...

my dad still hunts them now and again, he used to use a rabbit whistle and go spotlighting as well to get them. they had a bounty on them a while ago, i think you had to hand in there scalps because previously it was there tails but people used to cut them off and let them go so they changed it. i have seen them near some houses in sunbury at night but sunbury is sorrounded by paddocks and bush anyway.

edit: also it makes sense that they are moving in closer to where we live because they are running out of food and water. a few years back my grandma had one in her back yard she said she nearly had a heart attack and the nearest bush form her place was about 20 mins away.

lol thats a great way as well. set it up with larger speakers and you could get even more coming from miles away lol. :laugh:

LOL i still wana catch one of the pups

how cool would it be to have a friggin fox.

they are cute. my grandpa has a picture of one and it had the bluest eyes i have ever seen which was very strange for a fox.

i always wanted that one as a pet lol.

i see the maingy muts everyday at work (clayton) try to run them down if they cross the haul road.

back in the day the blokes use to bring there rifles into work and just shoot them, but now all the guns laws have changed, so we have to improvise :laugh:

    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
    • 310mm rotors will be avilable from Australia, Japan, and probably a few other places. Nothing for the front can be put on the back.
    • The filter only filters down to a specific size. Add to that, the filter is AFTER the pump. So it means everything starts breaking your pump even if its being filtered out.
